Today's episode of Sex Talk Cafe features Mattie Jo Cowsert, raised by a pastor and once a proud purity ring wearer before moving to New York City where she experienced an unexpected worldview and identity implosion thanks to Tinder and her Jewish roommate. Author of the book and blog by the same name, God Sex and Rich People, Mattie Jo is a living example of a woman who overcame the negative impact of religious programming and is now a beacon of hope for others. In this episode we explore the myth of "too soon", identifying what Mattie Jo calls "mysogynistic day walkers", overcoming sexual shame, and the steps you can take to overcome religious trauma and expand your capacity for sexual pleasure.

As our culture continues to promote ideologies that leave so many questioning their gender and sexuality, it's important that we as parents and the church continually remind our kids of God's good and glorious creational design as put forth in Genesis one and two. God made humanity in His image, and He made us male and female, which is the gender binary so many dispute and deny today. Why should be keep reminding our kids of God's Truth? A recent analysis of national survey results has found that one in four grade nine to twelve adolescents here in the United States report their sexual identity as non-heterosexual. Friends, don't ever forget that the period known as adolescence is a stage filled with physical changes and lots of questioning. In today's world, our vulnerable growing and changing kids are now given options beyond heterosexuality, or the gender binary of male and female. Provide the kids you and know and love with Godly guidance and direction.
TW: Mentions of rape and sexual assaultThis is the last of our purity culture series. For this last episode we had an amazing conversation with Mattie Jo Cowsert. Before terms like “deconstruction” “purity culture” or “Exvangelical'' became hashtags all over the internet, Mattie Jo' popular blog God, Sex & Rich People exposed the sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious realities of a young female Exvangelical navigating the diversity of Big Apple, working for the 1%, and dating in a city that never sleeps (and never stops sleeping around). This is her story.Mattie Jo's book will be available September 10th, 2024 on Amazon.

Mattie Jo Cowsert was a pastor's kid and proud purity ring-wearer before she moved to New York City and experienced an unexpected worldview and identity implosion. When the marriage equality act passed in 2015, Mattie Jo decided to share how the queer community was one of the catalysts for questioning everything she'd been taught, in her first publicly released blog post entitled: God and the Gays. This was the start of her popular blog, God, Sex & Rich People. Before terms like “deconstruction”, “purity culture” or “Ex-vangelical” became hashtags all over the internet, God, Sex & Rich People exposed the sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious realities of a young female Ex-evangelical navigating the diversity of the Big Apple, working for the 1%, and trying to have good sex without hating herself. Since then, Mattie Jo has developed a pilot for a series based on her blog which recently premiered at the Omaha Film Festival. Her forthcoming book is titled: "God, Sex, & Rich People: A Recovering Evangelical Testimony " In this candid and vulnerable conversation Mattie Jo opens up to Rachel about her experiences growing up in purity culture, outlining the damaging theology of Christian Patriarchy. Throughout the discussion Mattie Jo and Rachel upack the systematic and insidious mechanisms of control inherent in the common practices of conservative ideologies. Before You Go: Rachel explains how people leaving high control groups often miss out on the available resources and advocacy organizations in the broader community.

Raised primarily in rural China, Faith Jones went a myriad of ab*ses before finally escaping The Children of God cult to pursue higher education. The cult is known for its far too liberal views on s*xuality which ended up being forced polyamory and free love, even extending to the young members of the communes. She grew up singing on the streets or performing in restaurants to make money for “the family” as none of the adults had jobs. Once she left, she was able to become a lawyer and now speaks on the moral principles that primarily focus on the property rights of self. She's written two books which you can find on her websites below.Click here to watch on YouTube Find and Support FaithWebsites: FaithJones.comSexcultnun.comBuy her book hereIG: @iamfaithjones TEDX Talk: https://youtu.be/18oDUTQ14ME?si=HxJaoVQo_lNKAHUvFaith's grandfather started the COGTW: child sex abuseWho joins cults?Owning yourself & property rightsThe rules around sex changed slightlyFaith's hunger for educationFaith was forced to go to Thailand before being shipped to the USAHow Faith was inspired to finish high school on her ownThe importance of learning about the worldHas Faith revisited the countries of her childhood with new perspective?The culture shock of collegeRelearning boundaries around sexWhen did Faith recognize this moral framework?Moral principles in a single diagram that Faith createdHow Faith is doing nowOur C2C vacation where we can meet you in real life and go on adventures together has 7 spots left!

These principles and disciplinary actions were taught directly by the leader David Berg, who twisted the Bible to hurt a lot of people, including the young.

What does it mean to be an EXvangelical? For Mattie Jo Cowsert, how did that deconstruction of her faith, the tradition that she grew up in, all come about? How have family and friends back home reacted to Mattie Jo's journey, specifically with her being an outspoken exvangelical? What's it been like to go back and examine the truth of certain pillars of today's American Evangelicalism such as the Kanakuk Kamps, now known to have employed and protected serial sexual predators? We get into so much more, too - including plenty of politics! Mattie Jo Cowsert is an #exvangelical whose blog God, Sex & Rich People traces her journey from the Bible Belt to New York City as she deconstructs Christian fundamentalism to embrace personal and sexual freedom. Her book of the same name will be out this coming winter and her pilot based on her series premiered this year at the Omaha Film Festival.

He talks about moving beyond the desire for drugs, how people become attached to their sexual expression and what tantra truly is, and defines God to the best of his ability.Ram Dass ends the evening by singing, “Rejoice in the Lord.” Again, I say, rejoice.“Beyond all of the patterns of energy – physical, astral, causal – lies God, that which is beyond form. You aim for that, and in the course of it, if you are pure in your aim, you can do nothing which is adharmic, going against the dharma. And if you stay in the flow, in the Tao, in the dharma, then whatever needs to be for you and your fellow human being will be done, even though you may not understand what it is that's happening to you. Your intellectual awareness of what is going on is not necessary for this journey. It can speed it up and help it, but it's not necessary.” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
What if God gave us married sex as a picture of Himself? And how could your understanding of this picture revolutionize your sex life? Dr. Juli Slattery and her husband Mike explore mind-boggling truths of how, in an over-sexualized world, God's ideas about sex are far more than we imagined. Covenant is a unique relationship that's based on a promise. It's not based on how you feel. It's not based on if you're attracted to someone. It's not based on if you're meeting each other's needs. That's a contract. A covenant is, “I am promising to love you. I am promising to not leave you or forsake you.” Show Notes and Resources Connect with Dr. Juli Slattery at www.authenticintimacy.com and learn more about her ministry at sexualdiscipleship.com and get a copy of her book, God, Sex, and Your Marriage Check out more episodes from Juli Slattery Go to familylife.com/comingsoon to sign up for the Art of Marriage live event and to be notified of when pre-orders are live!

Dr. Juli Slattery challenges your assumptions about married sex—and reframes it as a stunning metaphor of God's covenant love. Where does our identity come from? Does it come from looking inward, or does it come from looking upward, and knowing God, and knowing who He says that I am? If you are not a believer in God, it makes perfect sense that you have to look inward or you have to ask people's advice to figure out who you are. But if we are believers in God and we trust the Scripture, then we find who we are by knowing Him and by putting faith into what He says about us. -- Dr. Juli Slattery Show Notes and Resources Connect with Juli Slattery at authenticintimacy.com or on Instagram @authenticintimacy Relcaim the conversation around sexuality at authenticintimacy.com/online-book-studies Check out Juli's podcast, Java with Juli Intrigued by this episode?

You're not going to want to miss this incredible episode where Alana and Kyle sit down with Dr. Juli Slattery and talk about her new book: God, Sex, and Your Marriage. They talk about how, when it comes to Christian sexuality and marriage, there are common issues like a lack of intimacy and communication and that being "sexually active" isn't the same as being "sexually intimate." Juli explains how, to build intimacy, couples can talk openly and seek help if needed. And how, in a Christian marriage, it's about finding a balance of passion and pleasure, not just ticking off "marital duty" boxes. God cares about our sexual growth and maturity, focusing on respect, understanding, and having fun along the way! You won't want to miss this one!

How can we find meaning when life seems devoid of purpose? Jamie Wheal, a renowned author, speaker, and expert on the subject of peak performance and flow states, explores the pressing question of how we can regain a sense of awe, wonder, and meaning in our lives and society in his new book Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex, and Death in a World That's Lost Its Mind. Drawing from his extensive research in fields such as neuroscience, psychology, and anthropology, Jamie examines the impact of societal and cultural factors on overall well-being and sense of meaning. He explores the human longing for transcendence and proposes a roadmap for individuals to reclaim a more vibrant, purpose-driven existence. Jamie also suggests that reclaiming a sense of rapture–a deep, transformative experience of wonder and connection–is crucial for our personal growth and the overall health of our society. Join Darius and Jamie in this episode as they talk about purpose, authenticity, and the importance of having real-world experiences in order to become a better human being.

Dr. Juli Slattery, the co-founder of Authentic Intimacy and author of numerous books, joins us at the virtual kitchen table to discuss some topics found in her latest book, God, Sex, and Your Marriage. Sponsor Venus Pearls Vaginal Comfort Suppositories, formulated to relieve vaginal dryness and enhance sexual response. Buy 2 Get 1 with coupon code B2G1 Also sponsored by Married Dance, an online Christian marital aid store from a Christian husband and wife. From the Bible (in order of mention in the episode) The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. I say this as a concession, not as a command. 1 Corinthians 7:3-6 (NIV) Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. Philippians 2:3-4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a The wife's body does not belong only to her. It also belongs to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong only to him. It also belongs to his wife. 1 Corinthians 7:4 (NIRV) The wife does not have [exclusive] authority over her own body, but the husband shares with her; and likewise the husband does not have [exclusive] authority over his body, but the wife shares with him. (AMP) Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. Ephesians 5:25-33 The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality—the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. Marriage is not a place to “stand up for your rights.” Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out. 1 Corinthians 7:3-4 (MSG Paraphrase) Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Psalm 51:10 (KJV) And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” 1 Corinthians 12:9a (NKJV) Resources God, Sex, and Your Marriage by Dr. Juli Slattery Rethinking Sexuality by Dr. Juli Slattery Authentic Intimacy - Juli's website Are You Owed Sex in Marriage? - Hot, Holy & Humorous Does Sex in Marriage Keep You from Cheating? - Hot, Holy & Humorous The #1 Myth Christian Women Learned about Sex - Hot, Holy & Humorous Love (and Sex in Marriage) Is Not Self-Seeking - Hot, Holy & Humorous Pillow Talk: 40 Conversations About Sex for Married Couples by J.

A friend recently mentioned to me a podcast, Java with Juli, that has completely changed how she approaches the topic of sexuality with her kids. Fast forward to today, and Juli Slattery is joining us to talk about sexuality as it relates to our marriages, parenting, and so much more. Now most of you know that talking about sex makes me squirm. So if for no other reason, you need to listen today because words are said in this show that have not been said in the 300+ podcasts I've released of Pardon the Mess.
Slowly over the past few decades, and now suddenly, all at once, we've suffered a collapse in meaning. Fundamentalism and nihilism readily stepped up to fill that vacuum, with consequences that affect us all. In a world that needs us at our best, diseases of despair, tribalism, and disaster fatigue are leaving us at our worst. In this episode, Vishen and Jamie chat about God, Sex, Death, and Time Travel. Jamie Wheal is the author of Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex and Death In a World That's Lost Its Mind and the global bestseller Stealing Fire: How Silicon Valley, Navy SEALs, and Maverick Scientists Are Revolutionizing the Way We Live and Work. He's also the founder of the Flow Genome Project, an international organization dedicated to the research and training of human performance. His ideas have been covered in The New York Times, Financial Times, Wired, Entrepreneur, Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Inc., and TED. He has spoken at Stanford University, MIT, the Harvard Club, Imperial College, Singularity University, the U.S. Naval War College and Special Operations Command, Sandhurst Royal Military Academy, the Bohemian Club, and the United Nations. In short, he's worth listening to. Listen out for: - The actual cause of all infidelities and heartbreaks. - Why there's so much guilt and stigma around sex and masturbation. - Jamie's recommendation for a mind-blowing solo and couple sexual experience. - The meaning of sexual yoga and how it can help you and your partner. - The best substances for better sex life. - How to set up your bedroom to help your sex life. - Psychedelic sexual experiences.

Join us as our guest applies a biblical framework to the practical challenges in sexual intimacy. Godly sexuality extends far beyond sexual purity and calls us to sexual integrity. God invites every couple to view their sexual relationship, including their greatest struggles, as an avenue to learn about the nature of His covenant love. It’s God's desire to make us more like Himself and sex within marriage is often a powerful training ground for godly character. That desire gives purpose and context to addressing pornography, healing from past wounds, sexual incompatibility, pursuing pleasure together, and forgiveness.
